  • 23" Studio Display with Power Book (17")

    I am considering running a 23" studio display with my 17" PB. From perusing the discussions here it seems this is entirely possible (although there is some debate over keeping the clam shell closed during operation...). As a photographer and heavy user of Photoshop my concern is this: will I get full perfromance from the 23" in this configuration...will it perform to the extent that it would if connected to a current desktop Mac. Also....will adding a studio display to the PB diminish its performance in any way, either with its own screen on or off? For your information, the PB is relatively new; purchased within the last year. Also, if there are any Photoshop users out there: is it possible to set up the smaller 17" screen for things like palettes etc., and reserve the 23" for the image being edited, only? Thanks.

    It's plug and play, so that's not an issue.
    The debate about running the clamshell closed is so that, if the extra desktop space is not required, there is no point "stressing" the video ram and videocard and cpu by having the other display running - all resources can turn to the external display.
    As for extending the desktop, yes you can do that with Photoshop - you have the space of the PB and the new display, entirely up to you what you put where - just drag across.
    Performance wise, I don't imagine that Photoshop would cause as many difficulties as say video editing might, and I've not come across anyone saying that they have had performance issues from running the extra display - you may get some extra heat as the processor is taxed though.
    If in doubt, you could test at an Apple Store or reseller.
    Also, you might find getting extra ram a useful upgrade.
    Hope that helps, best of luck.

  • Ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

    ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

    No on the book title, no problem there.
    The issue is: my book pages appear as on white paper, no background that resembles a open book and also no option to change fonts. The book was created in iBooks author, there was a problem going with the "Publish" menu route so I was instructed my Apple to "export" the file and submit that. I think that's the problem after reading that iBooks author is a hybrid epub file.
    Thanks for getting back to me.

  • Cinema display with mac book pro 15" using bootcamp

    Hi all, thank you in advance for answering my question. I just got a new mac book pro 15inch with the new cinema display, i am gonna use bootcamp to install windows vista, y question is will i still be able to use the cinema display when i am in windows system? thank you

    I have the same set up, but I must be doing something wrong, because when I set up the monitor to mirror the laptop the 24" LED screen is blurry and bright. When I have it set up as dual view the 24" LED screen looks good, yet, I have to drag everything over to the larger screen.
    How do I set it up as primary screen? Or make mirror screen work?
    Thanks!!!

  • 27" LED Display with power issues

    I have had some peculiar issues with my ACD since I received it about a month and a half ago. I use it with my new i7 iMac. Specifically, the issue is with the power supply inside the unit (I think). One night about a month ago, I heard a "pop" from behind the ACD, and it went black. I knew that the unit itself was fully powered down as I could get nothing from any of the USB ports (such as charging of my iPod). I swapped power cables with my iMac, and the iMac powered on just fine, so I ruled that out. I then left the unit unplugged, boxed it up, and took it to the Apple Store the day after. To my surprise, it powered up just fine when I got there. Sure enough, it worked again when I brought it back home.
    Now, just last night, I switched off the breaker panel to the circuit that had the ACD on it to change a light fixture. When I turned it back on, I powered back up my iMac...and the ACD did not turn on. Same thing: all ports dead, no power at all. Left it unplugged for 2 hours...no results. Then, I left it unplugged over the entire night. When I woke up, plugged it back in , and now it works again.
    It seems as if the longer amount of time allows the power supply inside to "reset" somehow or something, but I am at a loss as to if this is some sort of true defect, or a flaw in design. Even the instruction manual recommends leaving the unit unplugged for a while if it fails to power on.
    Anyone have similar issues? Anyone able to help me figure out what is going on?

    What I do when I have issues that can be tough to replicate is record them with my phone, take the unit to the store, and if it doesn't happen, show them the video.

    is this diplay compatable with the intel power books (graphics cards etc), if there is a possibility, whats connections need to be made?

    Thank you, I took it to the Apple store and the genius guy has seen the issue before, I only had to show him one photo and he was on it. Apparently he has booked it in to get the Motherboard or Logic board as Apple call it replaced under warranty.

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • I book doesnt work with power cord only

    Hello. I was just using my ibook g4 and shut it down. When i tried to turn it back on it worked for about 5 minutes then it shut off. I tried taking out the battery and holding down the power button for 5 seconds among other things. I gave up and borrowed a friends battery, he has the same model as me and that battery doesnt work either. I tried just using the power cord only and that doesnt work either. Do i need to take it in to a professional? I've tried just about everything.

    Hey Caesar and Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    So your header reads:
    "i book doesnt work with power cord only "
    Is that right? Will it run only on the battery?
    If so this is from the manual:
    "The computer runs with battery, but not with the power adapter plugged into
    wall outlet
    1. Try known-good power outlet.
    2. Try known-good power adapter and power cord.
    Note:
    Verify that power adapter connector glows amber or green. If the power
    adapter light is green, turn over the computer and press the battery button. The
    battery lights should glow green and stay on if the power adapter is operating
    correctly.
    3. Reset the power manager by pressing the key combination Control-Option-Shiftpower.
    Warning: Make sure you do not hold down the "fn" key when resetting the
    power manager.
    Warning: Resetting the power manager means you will also need to reset the
    date and time (using the Date & Time control panel).
    4. Replace DC board.
    5. Replace logic board."
    and it would help to know exactly which iBook you have but this is pretty generic.

  • HT204154 My macbook with thunderbolt display without power supply stops working on battery mode, is that normal?

    I use a 27" Thunderbolt display on my macbook pro. If I disconnect the power supply from the mac, the monitor stops working.
    Is that normal or do I have to make some changes on the setup ?
    Thanks
    +GL

    Greetings koningsvaren,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you connect your MacBook Pro to an external Thunderbolt display and everything works as it should while connected to power, but once power is removed from the MacBook Pro, the second display no longer functions. It sounds like you may be using this configuration with your MacBook Pro closed, otherwise known as closed-clamshell mode. In order to use a second display with your Mac portable in closed-clamshell mode, the Mac portable must be connected to power. Please refer to the attached article for more information. If this is not the case, please let me know.

  • I need to reinstall iTunes after uninstalling it on a power book g4 with os 10.4.11

    I need to reinstall iTunes 9 after uninstalling it on a power book g4 with os 10.4. The iTunes version 9.2.1 cannot run on my apple, I already tried.

    You should update your system to 10.4.11 if you haven't done so (your title says one thing and your signature another)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL170
    - then you will be able to run iTunes 9.2.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056 - which should definitely run on 10.4.11 G4. It might be a good idea to run that updater anyway. Removing the built-in programs isn't a good idea and can sometimes upset your System. In extremis you may even need to reinstall from your original discs and then run the combo updater.
